ClockClock 24 White with Golden Hands by Humans Since 1982, Kinetic Sculpture
About the Item
ClockClock 24 is both a kinetic sculpture and a functioning wall clock. It has been a signature piece of Humans since 1982 since it was first launched in 2016. The individual clock hands veer from unpredictable, mechanical spinning to perfect synchronization, illustrating a shifting choreography of disarray and structure. Once each minute, the clock hands align to tell the time as a digital clock.
The work explores how time can be shaped and aestheticized by combining analog and digital elements in a novel and playful manner. As the clock hands shift between abstract movement patterns and precise alignment, the passing of time is transformed into a tactile concept that is both curious and visually intriguing.
ClockClock 24 demonstrates Humans since 1982’s continuous engagement in conceptual complexity combined with technical precision and expert craftsmanship.
The clock can be programmed in a 12- or 24-hour time format. The movements can be chosen among minimal, medium, or elaborate modes. It consists of 22 Karat gold-plated clock hands mounted on a handcrafted white housing of mineral composite and electrical components. Each piece is numbered and comes with a signed certificate of authenticity, an operator’s manual, hanging bracket, and art handling gloves.

Humans Since 1982
Stockholm, Sweden-based design studio Humans Since 1982 hijacks the original intent of trivial objects, transforming the ordinary into the extraordinary. Their larger projects and decor — with the latter being essentially kinetic art sculptures — see the collective experimenting with clocks, lighting, looped video, code and more in order to create wholly captivating exhibitions and works of art.
The brainchild of German-born Bastian Bischoff, Swedish-born Per Emanuelsson and Australian engineer David Cox, Humans Since 1982 was founded in 2009 in Stockholm, Sweden.
Bischoff and Emanuelsson met while studying art, engineering and graphic design at the University of Gothenburg. They found they shared an interest in technology and how humans interact with it in the modern world. One of the group’s first projects was The Clock Clock, an effort to subvert clocks so that a collection of them are paired together as a single art object, with the devices' hands spinning dutifully to display dazzling abstract patterns. The firm’s equally mesmerizing A Million Times series also subverts the traditional functions of timepieces, as hands of multiple analogue clocks programmatically spin individually to yield similarly provocative abstract visuals.
In 2014, the Changi Airport Group in Singapore contracted Humans Since 1982 to design a large timepiece. The result was the creation of a massive kinetic sculpture. Comprising more than 500 wall clocks, A Million Times at Changi is the world’s largest clock installation and is a breathtaking work of art. It’s also a functioning clock.
